Digital Converter Box for TV,1080P ATSC tv Tuner Box with hdmi Output and 3RCA Cables Hidden Behind TV，with Power Adapter，2-in-1 Remote，TV Program Recording&Playback,USB Media Player

This was incredibly easy to set up. I bought it mainly for the ability to use a thumb drive as a DVR, and that feature works flawlessly. I’ve really enjoyed using it—it’s great being able to record a show so I don’t miss a sporting event, all while staying OTA and cord-free.

Excellent product. I have in the past used a USB TV stick for my computer to watch OTA TV and have been disappointed with what is out there on the market. I bought this device to hook up to my monitor to watch TV and this device is so much better. The price point was equal or better than the USB type device. This device has incredible sensitivity! I live in the Dallas-Fort Worth area and I can easily get 60+ channels with just a basic atenna whareas I needed a amplified atenna before and received half the channels with the USB dongle! It is easy to set up and I don't have to task my computer to watch OTA TV. I highly recommend this product!

Excellent product, works just as advertised!

UPDATED April 2025:Decreasing from 2 down to 1 star. It's been a few months. Now the unit frequently and mysteriously drops some channels from my Favorites list, especially the local ABC and PBS channels. Those get very strong signals too. It also will drop scheduled recordings and my weekly programs will not record because it's disappeared from the To-Do list. Sometimes it will drop the Favorite channel that I have a scheduled recording for, but still have it programmed to record only without the channel showing. Therefore, it doesn't record anything since it doesn't know what channel to record from. It will not allow me to Edit it and add the channel back. I have to delete the programming completely and start over.Essentially, this only works as an antenna decoder. All the other functions frequently fail.UPDATED FEB 2025:Been using this a few weeks now. The unit has since started acting up:1. Now sometimes it will shut down by itself while watching TV and then either reboot or stay off. If it stays off, the remote won't turn it back on so I have to unplug the box and force a reboot.2. Video and audio will get out of sync where video is delayed slightly. This is when watching live TV. Haven't recorded enough on it to see if it routinely happens on DVR. Rebooting the box is the only fix...until it starts happening again. I have my antenna split to another TV with built-in tuner. This delay doesn't occur on that TV so I know it's the ZJBox.3. DVR recordings and live TV show pixelations now and then even with very strong signal strength. Again, my other TV with built-in tuner doesn't do this.For $20, you get what you paid for. I just wish someone would make a simple tuner/decoder that just stays active all the time without a "brain" that has to boot up.ORIGINAL REVIEW:Finally cut the satellite cord, but still needed to be able to watch local broadcasts and record occasionally. My TV has a built-in tuner, but my components are in another room and I didn't want to fish coax cable through the attic/wall then take the TV off the wall to connect the coax, etc. I opted for this tuner so I could install it at the receiver where my satellite box was and am using it with a wireless IR blaster relay. Setup was pretty straightforward. However, I docked a star because there are no instructions on how to use the recording features and the buttons you use for other functions don't always match what's written/shown on the instruction sheet. So, I had to go through quite a bit of trial and error and figure things out.I was finally able to get it all set up with favorite channels and am using a PNY 256G USB drive for the recordings. So far, everything seems to be working.Things I managed to figure out about the recording/DVR:1. Instructions say the guide will show you upcoming shows 14 days in advance, but it actually only goes 23 hours ahead. So you can't schedule to record a show in advance until the day before when the show actually appears on the guide. I did test it on a show that was starting in 20 minutes and it recorded perfectly.2. Hitting the Record button will start recording what you're currently watching, BUT you have to hit the STOP button to stop recording. As far as I can tell, it will not stop recording until you press Stop.3. You can schedule a recording in advance, but it must be at least 2 minutes before the show starts. Otherwise you'll get a notice on the screen that says it's not available or something.4. While watching live TV, the playback buttons will allow you to pause/rewind/fast forward. Screen calls it a Time Shift. Not sure how long you can keep it paused and such though.Honestly, if you just need a very basic HD/1080p tuner with DVR capability, then this will work just fine. I didn't want all the added features like streaming to other TVs or installing apps/paying for subscriptions with the $100+ price of fancier tuners. For this price of $20 though, you have to be willing to deal with the VERY rudimentary interface and lack of recording instructions.

Delivered as promised. Very good quality. Very easy to set up with easy to understand instructions. Set up was very quick and works flawlessly. Easy to hide behind my wall mounted TV so no wires are showing. I would recommend it to anyone. The tuner in my older flatscreen TV was not good at all, but this delivers excellent quality from my antenna connected to 4 other televisions. It located all ‘over the air” channels i can watch on my newer more expensive living room TV.

Fantastic product. Easy to setup and all the cables you will need. Only thing to mention is you do need two AAA batteries for the remote that were not included.

Amazon’s pointer for ZJBox support website points to a domain that is for sale. Does not go to seller’s support contact site.The ZJBox learning mode instructions are simple enough. It learned the audio volume up and down for my Samsung just fine. However it did not learn the TV power on/off function.UPDATE: after four failed attempts, then writing this review, I tried again, this time it worked!The device was otherwise easy to install, learned my over the air digital broadcast TV stations to the limits of the antenna and is easy to operate.I did not employ the USB storage play, recording or scheduled recording features.

I have a TV that only receives analog channels. Well, this receiver/converter allows me to receive digital TV channels OTA. At first I was concerned about reports that the remote didn't work well but with a little experience it works perfectly. You should see the picture quality with a good monitor. It is amazing.
